Gullhaven Post Office

The queue for the last posting day ran out of the door and down the street. Behind the counter, a man who had come for a mystery parcel was found dead.

The victim: the man with the parcel. Took the last square, alone with the murderer.

Biscuit’s hints

How to play
  1. One person per row and one per column, the victim included.
  2. People stand only on open squares (the map key shows which). Anything else blocks the square.
  3. Every clue is true.
  4. The victim took the last square: the row and column left over.
  5. Exactly one suspect was in the victim’s room, and that suspect did it.
